One of this generation's top Test batsmen, Steven Smith has captivated the crowd with both his talent and his tenacity and drive. Smith has become a role model for young and aspiring cricketers due to his passion for the sport. Over the previous few years, the talented Australian batter has improved his hitting performance in all formats. 

With 8792 runs across 96 games, the 34-year-old has primarily thrived in Test cricket. Smith's astounding 59.88 average, 30 centuries, and 37 fifties are all to his credit. In the beginning, the Australian score machine was known as a potential leg-spinner, who had some batting skills. 

Although the scandal surrounding ball tampering at Newlands cost Smith his captaincy and led to a brief suspension of his playing career for a year, it was the low point in his career. But he sensationally resurrected his career in 2019 by hitting 774 runs during the Ashes series. Steve Smith has a following in India as well thanks to his strong batting performances.

The run machine went on to take home the Allan Border medal over a fourth time earlier this year. Any cricketer who wins it will receive one of the highest individual distinctions in Australian cricket. The renowned Australian batsman has previously accomplished this accomplishment in years such as 2015, 2018, and 2021, so this is not his first time.

The right-handed batter is adored by a big global fan base and is recognised as among the best batters both at home and on the road. In the meantime, the cricketer's supporters sent birthday wishes to him via social media. Everyone is awaiting the battle between him and the English bowlers in English conditions. His last Ashes series away from home was quite memorable as he was able to clinch the Player of the Series award for scoring the highest number of runs in the series in 2019.
